Hi list,

I just been looking at the 'sort' verb to understand how its done.

   sort
/:~ :/:
┌──────┬─┬──┐
│┌──┬─┐│:│/:│
││/:│~││ │  │
│└──┴─┘│ │  │
└──────┴─┴──┘

I don't understand why the ':/:' is there for as
   sort2=: /:~
   sort2 9 8 7 6 3
3 6 7 8 9

produces correct results on all my simple test cases.

Thanks
